Because ceramic sinks are more porous than composite or porcelain sinks, it's vital to repair any chips or cracks immediately to prevent water absorption, mould growth, or further damage. Our specialised repair procedure is perfect for fixing chips and cracks in ceramic sinks. With years of experience, we know how to restore your ceramic sink to its original state fast! Based in Portobello, we can reach you quickly for a ceramic sink repair.
1. First, we assess the damage to your sink and then select the most effective way to repair it.
2. We use a specialised bonder on the damaged area to ensure the next layer adheres effectively. 3. The area is filled and sanded to create a smooth surface without any bumps. 4. We apply an additional layer of bonder over the filler to secure it. 5. Now, the technician will match the enamel colour to your sink and apply it with a fine spray gun. 6. Let it sit for 24 hours to fully cure and set.
High-quality clay is used to create ceramic sinks, which are fired at extremely high temperatures and coated with a durable, non-porous glaze or enamel porcelain coating.
We strive to provide a top-quality repair for your ceramic sink that remains unnoticeable during everyday use.
The materials we use ensure that the repairs are durable and can endure the normal usage of sinks, baths, or shower trays. Achieving a seamless blend of the repair into the surface takes significant skill and expertise. Repairing your sink is more cost-effective than removing and replacing the damaged sink, and it causes far less disruption. In some cases, where the damage is extensive, we may suggest resurfacing the sink. If there’s structural damage, replacing the sink would be the better option over repairing it. DIY Repair Kits will not create a lasting repair as the materials that are provided are not good quality and it will be very hard to get a colour match. We do not recommend trying these as they end up being a waste of money. It's obviously up to you if you want to try it, but there is a reason why we are still in business as a professional repair company.How long will the repair take?
For a couple of simple chip repairs, the process takes around 1-2 hours. However, larger crack or hole repairs will take more time, and sink resurfacing will typically take about 4-5 hours. After any repair, it’s important to wait 24 hours for the sink to fully cure and harden.
